If you’re not a fan of Christian Von Koenigsegg’s work then you need your head read. A Koenigsegg might not be your favourite super/hyper/uber car, but anyone with a love of things with four wheels ought to be able to appreciate the cars they build at Angelholm. This video is an interview with Christian Von […]

It’s the racers that inspire us, isn’t it? And did you know that the Lancia Fulvia was the last car to win what would be the predecessor to the modern World Rally Championship? Lancia went on to win ten WRC trophies after that, too, with the Stratos, the 037 and the Delta! Art mimicking life……
